  abstract: Contemporary American horror literature for children and young adults has two bold messages for readers. Adults are untrustworthy, unreliable and often dangerous and the monster always wins (as it must if there is to be a sequel). Examining the young adult horror series and the religious horror series for children (Left Behind: The Kids) for the first time, and tracing the unstoppable monster to Seuss's Cat in the Hat, this book sheds new light on the problematic message produced by the combination of marketing and books for contemporary American young readers.
  table of contents: Background and overview -- Fear as pedagogy: temperance stories for children -- Horror in the basal reader: The cat in the hat -- Horror and adolescence -- The religion of horror, the horror of religion.
